Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has reaffirmed her commitment to maintaining Boston’s sanctuary city status in response to Trump’s mass deportation policy. As federal immigration crackdowns intensify, Wu emphasizes that Boston will remain a safe haven for undocumented immigrants, asylum seekers, and mixed-status families. Her stance aligns with the city’s longstanding efforts to protect immigrant rights and resist federal overreach.
With growing concerns about deportation raids, immigrant rights violations, and policy rollbacks, Wu’s pledge ensures that Boston will continue providing legal support, community resources, and protections for vulnerable populations.
However, she has also stated that the city will cooperate with the federal government in holding accountable individuals who commit crimes, regardless of their immigration status.
